I confess....

I have a friend from high school, who had a friend who did this post. So, I copy because I enjoyed reading about their confessions. Feel free to play along!!

  • I can't lie. I even went back to the Secretary of the State to pay more sales tax on a car once.
  • I love quiet!!
  • A good nap is a couple of hours.
  • I'm terrified of the dark.
  • I worry about anything. Lloyd says I worry enough for both of us.
  • I have always struggled with the "mom" I am.
  • I have been told I have it all together only to feel like many things are falling apart.
  • When I am really anxious I will smell Lloyd and it helps to calm me down.
  • I think everyone can benefit from counseling, even if there is no traumatic life experience.
  • I bake when I am stressed. Rolls, bread, cookies
  • I can't stand keeping things we aren't using.
  • I was sure we weren't going to have more kids after the two girls, we now call them Jackson, Reuben, and Nora.
  • I am not the person you want to be with in an emergency, I don't think well; though, I am getting much better.
  • I love going to school, I think it has made me a better mom.
  • I wish I could cry more often, it would be such a release.
  • The one thing I would do anything to avoid at any cost is having our family split apart.

Why I call 911



Nora decided to eat and choke on a lifesaver today!!!
I remained calm enough to call 911.
After I called Nora finally got it out!!
I cancelled the peramedics..
Thank heavens for the miracle
and no lights or sirens ended up at my house in the end!!
